Converse x Virgil Abloh 'The Ten' Chuck Taylor 1970s - Register Now on END. Launches

Abloh's reconstructed icons are finally complete

The last of “The Ten”, Virgil Abloh’s hyped-up sneaker series is finally complete with the release of the Converse Chuck Taylor.

A game-changer for the all-American icon, the open-source nature of the upper is taken from the “GHOSTING” half of the original collection - an idea to reveal and unite the models’ 94-years of combined history via semi-revealing translucent materials.

Transparent to let all the seams and construction shine through, in true Abloh style, “VULCANIZED” lettering on the midsole and “SHOELACES” insignia to the lacing demonstrate the cult designer codes.

Finishing off the athletic high top, an orange zip-tie adds a pop of colour to complement the icy outsole.

The Converse x Virgil Abloh Chuck Taylor 1970s Hi is now available for registration on END. Launches.

For those wishing to take part in our separate in-store raffles, registration will open at END. Newcastle and END. Glasgow at 9am on Wednesday 9th May and remain open until 5pm on Friday 11th of May.
